2.  National Malaria Eradication Programme
(NMEP) which was being implemented in the
country since 1958, was reviewed in 1977 and
revised guidelines for Modified Plan of
Operation (MPO) were issused to all States &
UTs

3.  Due to various outbreaks in the country
malaria situation was reviewed in 1994 by an
Expert Committee.
 In pursuance of the Expert Committee's
recommendations, the Directorate of NMEP
brought out operational manual for Malaria
Action Programme (MAP) in 1995

4.  The Directorate of NMEP was renamed as
Directorate of National Anti Malaria
Programme (NAMP) in March, 1999.
 Directorate of NAMP was dealing with three
centrally sponsored schemes namely Malaria,
Filaria and Kala-azar control and in addition,
was looking after the prevention and control
of Dengue and Japanese Encephalitis.

5.  With a view to converge Dengue/Dengue
Haemorrhagic fever and Japanese
Encephalitis with the three on-going centrally
sponsored schemes [National Anti-Malaria
Programme (NAMP), National Filaria Control
Programme (NFCP) and Kala-azar Control
Programme], the integrated scheme was
renamed as National Vector Borne Disease
Control Programme (NVBDCP) from 2nd
December, 2003.

6.  In 2006, Chikungunya re-emerged in the
country and this was also brought within the
purview of Directorate of NVBDCP.

7. • Earlier the Vector Borne Diseases were managed
under separate National Health Programs
• NVBDCP is an umbrella program for prevention
and control of 6 vector borne diseases namely:
 Malaria
 Dengue
 Chikungunya
 Japanese Encephalitis
 Kala-Azar
 Filaria (Lymphatic Filariasis)
